FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 2024 TODAY: Partly Cloudy Highs: near 85 Winds: Southeast 5-10 mph We'll wrap up the last week of June with really nice weather. After a comfortable morning in the 60s, temperatures will warm into the mid-80s by the afternoon with low humidity. Humidity levels will slowly climb this evening, but it should still be a nice, summer night ahead. TONIGHT: Partly to Mostly Cloudy Lows: 70-75 Winds: Southeast 5-10 mph Clouds will increase overnight with milder lows in the 70s. Humidity levels will climb after midnight into the muggy range, so you'll certainly feel the difference early Saturday morning. SATURDAY: HEAT ALERT Partly Sunny Isolated Shower, Storm Highs: Low 90s Heat Index: Upper 90s Winds: South 5-15 mph Plan for a very humid Saturday with afternoon highs nearing 90 degrees. With such high humidity (dew points in the low to mid 70s), feels-like temperatures will be much higher than actual air temperatures. It will feel more like the upper 90s by the afternoon and low 90s through the evening. An isolated shower or storm is possible during the day, but higher rain chances are expected overnight with the chance for heavy rain and gusty winds. SUNDAY: STORM ALERT Cloudy to Partly Sunny PM Rain, Storm Chance Highs: Low to Mid 90s Heat Index: 100-105 Winds: West 5-10 mph Hot weather alerts may be posted for parts of the DMV has feels-like readings jump to above 100. Actual air temperatures are set to range from the lower to middle 90s. Shower and storms chances are on the rise, especially during the afternoon and evening hours, as a cold front approaches. With such high temperatures and humidity, any storms that develop could be strong to severe with damaging winds and hail, so stay weather-aware for the second half of the day. EARLY NEXT WEEK: July starts on Monday and the weather is looking delightful! We'll start the week with much lower humidity (dewpoint temperatures in the 50s) and cooler highs in the low to mid-80s.
